[Bug 2070150] Re: Cannot move a window of a pop-up with error message

Marking the dialog window as transient[1] and or modal[2], as GTK
directs, causes this annoyance.

Unfortunately all the dialogs in the program are sub-classed from this
transient-and-modal window class, so thought must be given for whether
we want to remove those properties entirely or just allow the main
window to continue to exist after the dialog is closed.

Title:
  Cannot move a window of a pop-up with error message

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  1. Currently lsb_release -rd show me Description:       Ubuntu 24.04
  LTS, but it seems I don't completely update from the 23.x version

  2. apt-cache policy update-manager
  update-manager:
    Installed: 1:24.04.6
    Candidate: 1:24.04.6
    Version table:
   *** 1:24.04.6 500
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu noble/main amd64 Packages
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu noble/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3. I upgraded the Linux from 23.x to 24.10. During the installation, a failure happened, and was appeared a pop-up with a message "Could not install the upgrades" . When I tried to move this pop-up apart (not to close, because if I close the pop-up, the entire window is going to close), the "Distribution Upgrade" entire window moved instead of the pop-up only (what I expected to happen).
  How it looks:

  P.S. For something reason, there is no mouse pointer on the video, so it's not clear I did move the pop-up, not entire window
